If today's landscape of college football makes it impossible to both do things the right way, and also be elite, which one do you want to sacrifice?

I have heard it said that the NCAA would only give the Death Penalty to some teams while others would be slapped on the wrist and sent to bed with no supper. Which category is Nebraska in? I'm not sure who would even stick up for us in the NCAA. Certainly no one from the BIG 12, PAC 12, ACC or SEC since we recruit on a national basis. Have we been in the BIG long enough to have any pull?

MeM- I would agree that all teams basically operate the same way. If we aren't doing what the top teams are then that is our fault. People have this notion that we aren't getting the results because we're somehow cleaner and better. I don't believe it. Why isn't Bama and so many others on probation then?

Alabama actually operates quite within the rules for the most part. They just find some pretty dubious loopholes to exploit in ways that some, myself included, don't find to be very honorable.
Our program is no shining beacon of spotless moral uprightness. I'm not claiming that. However, if people can't see a difference in the way that the Nebraska athletic department runs things compared to many/most blue blood programs...well, that's just unnecessarily dismissive...
